Two factors that can impact data transfer speed between the CPU and main memory are:
a) Bus Speed: The rate at which data is transferred between the CPU and main memory is influenced by the speed of the data bus connecting them. Faster buses can transmit more data per unit of time, resulting in quicker transfers.
b) Memory Access Time: The time it takes to locate and retrieve data from main memory affects data transfer speed. Lower memory access times mean that data can be fetched more quickly, resulting in faster data transfers.
